'''Tourmaline Plateau''' ({{coor dm|74|10|S|163|27|E|}}) is an ice-covered plateau in the central part of the [[Deep Freeze Range]], bounded by the [[Howard Peaks]] and the peaks and ridges which trend north-south from [[Mount Levick]], in [[Victoria Land]]. So named by the [[Northern Party]] of [[New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition]] (NZGSAE), 1965-66, because of the quantities of tourmaline-granite found there.

'''Traffic Circle''' ({{coor dm|68|37|S|66|0|W|}}) is a [[glacier]]-filled expanse 500 m high, situated south of [[Mount Ptolemy]] and medially on [[Antarctic Peninsula]] between [[Marguerite Bay]] and [[Mobiloil Inlet]]. Hub Nunatak rises from the center of the Traffic Circle. From this position, five glacial troughs radiate like the spokes of a wheel. One connects on the north with [[Gibbs Glacier]] and [[Neny Glacier]], leading to [[Neny Fjord]]. Another connects on the west with [[Lammers Glacier]] and [[Windy Valley]], leading to [[Mikkelsen Bay]]. A third, [[Cole Glacier]], trends southwest along [[Godfrey Upland]] toward the [[Wordie Ice Shelf]] area. The fourth, [[Weyerhaeuser Glacier]], trends southward toward [[Wakefield Highland]] and connects with glaciers leading westward to Wordie Ice Shelf. The fifth, [[Mercator Ice Piedmont]], is nourished by the outflow from Weyerhaeuser, Cole and [[Gibbs Glaciers]]; it broadens as it descends eastward to the head of Mobiloil Inlet. Discovered in 1940 by members of the [[East Base]] party of the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS), 1939-41, who used this system of troughs in traveling across the upland, hence the name Traffic Circle.

The glacier flows from a snowfield at about 2,750 m down a steep slope for at least 900 m vertically, then spreads out and merges with the ice sheet a few mi from the south side of the mountain. Mapped from ANARE ([[Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions]]) air photos and surveys of the [[Prince Charles Mountains]], 1960-61. Named by [[Antarctic Names Committee of Australia]] (ANCA) for [[D.S. Trail]], geologist who led an ANARE field party to this feature in December 1961.

The width of Graham Land is reduced to 20 nautical miles (37 km) between the heads of Trail Inlet and [[Neny Fjord]]. So named by the US-SCAN because it was a natural route of travel for flights and sledge trips from the [[East Base]] of the [[United States Antarctic Service]] (USAS), 1939-41, to the east coast of Graham Land.

'''Tranquillity Valley''' ({{coor dm|82|36|S|52|55|W|}}) is a snow-covered [[valley]] between [[Hannah Peak]] and [[Cairn Ridge]] in the west part of [[Dufek Massif]], [[Pensacola Mountains]]. The name was proposed by [[Arthur B. Ford]], [[United States Geological Survey]] (USGS) geologist, leader of several USGS field parties to the Pensacola Mountains, 1965-79. Named from its typical weather conditions, the valley being protected from strong winds most of the time. The USGS snowmobile parties coming from cold, windy areas found welcome refuge in this valley. The name is also in accord with nearby [[Enchanted Valley]] to indicate the general beauty of this part of Dufek Massif.

'''Traversay Islands''' ({{coor dm|56|36|S|27|43|W|}}) is a group of three islands, consisting of Zavodovski, Leskov, and [[Visokoi Islands]], at the north end of the [[South Sandwich Islands]].

'''Tumble Glacier''' ({{coor dm|69|57|S|69|20|W|}}) is a [[glacier]] on the east side of [[Alexander Island]], 7 nautical miles (13 km) long and 3 nautical miles (6 km) wide, which flows east from the cliffs of [[Mounts Egbert]], Ethelwulf and Ethelred into the west side of [[George VI Sound]] immediately south of [[Mount King]]. First roughly surveyed in 1936 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill. Resurveyed in 1948 by the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS), and so named by them because of the extremely broken condition of the lower reaches of the glacier.
